My name is Curt McNamara, a design engineer and project manager from
Minneapolis, MN.
Along with my design work I coordinate a study groups on systems
thinking and biomimicry.
I research and write about Bucky Fuller, and teach on-line courses at
http://www.online.mcad.edu

Last summer I taught a course on systems thinking that included
materials from Christopher
Alexander (_The Timeless Way of Building_), living systems theory, life
cycle analysis,
and biomimicry.

This semester I teach a course called _Innovation, Sustainability, and
Design_ We will study
creative thinking, personal effectiveness, and approaches to sustainable
design from
Thackera (_In The Bubble_) and Sim Van der Ryn (_Ecological Design_)
among others.

If you are aware of any places that would help publicize the classes I
would appreciate the
leads. Thanks!
